as a last try,try this open your terminal and do this : "sudo update-grub".
I've tried it over and over. This the output of the last time (4s ago):

=====================
before you ask, I followed this tutorial here http://www.timmeredith.com/tutorials/windows-8-grub.php
so now i have a file at /etc/grub.d/ named 50_windows with the following code:
Code:
menuentry "Windows 8" {
insmod part_gpt
insmod chain
set root='(hd0,gpt1)'
chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}
it seems that such code is not really good, but if fixed it could insert the option in grub's list
